Michael A. Phoenix made his directorial debut with the short film "Fleeting Nirvana" in 2020 .
This film is very special to me, not just because I had a very heavy hand in every aspect of it, but because I lost my only aunt some years ago and this was my final release of it. Thanks for reading my statement. I hope you have enjoyed or will enjoy the movie.
